. >> john podesta, bill clinton's chief of staff, says that presidents can make things happen even without congressional support. >> the president has enormous power under the constitution and the laws of the united states. i'll give you an example. he has authority to change the mix of energy in the country through the use of existing powers that he has under the statutes, particularly the work he could do through his epa to move to the more dirty forms of polluting fuels to cleaner fuels. >> it might be hard to make it happen but james baker's point holds. president obama will need to get some help from republicans if he wants to get things done, otherwise it's just talk. if he could get 30 to 40 house republicans on his side, obama would have created a governing majority, something every successful president has had. next up, the economy. is there a silver bullet that will get it going? we'll tell you when we come back. at 1:45, the aflac duck was brought in with multiple lacerations to the wing and a fractured beak. surgery was successful, but he will be in a cast until it is fully hea

we saw that before with newt gingrich and bill clinton. and in clinton's second term, they did actually get stuff done. they worked it out between them. but does the president have that kind of relationship with john boehner, say, where we can feel optimistic that they're going to have a very different kind of relationship but can actually be more effective? >> i think there's a different kind of dynamic that speaker boehner has to deal with. i don't know him personally, but his reputation is that he can get deals done, but then he has to sell them in a caucus, some whom, a minority, but a vocal minority of whom are very rigid indeed. so i think the speaker has an opportunity to show his more magnanimous leadership and to lead the whole of the house, and not just his caucus. and as he does that, i think his relationship, not just with the president, but with the general public will improve, and i hope it does. >> one of the issues he's going to face is gun crime, gun control, gun violence, generally. he's been generally audacious in terms
